PIPE.

Patented 110.. 2a, :1 913.

Application filed May 19, 1911. Serial No. 628,325.

To all whom it may concern Be it known that we, Anoxzo IV. LAR'ISON andJacon S'rUoKnL, citizens of the United States, residing at Lincoln, inthe county of LogamState of Illinois, have invented a new and usefulPipe, of which the following a specification.

This invention relates to improvements in tobacco pipes, otherwisetermed smoking pipes.

It has for its object, principally, to suitably eliminatesaliva-accumulations, as well as the nicotin.

A further object is to provide for readily recovering and removing suchsaliva-accumulations and nicotin.

A still further object is to provide for effectively and expeditiouslycleaning the A still further object is to prevent the salivaaccumulations, etc., from casually entering the pipe-bowl.

A still further object is to carry out the aforesaid ends in a simple,inexpensive and effective manner.

The invention consists of certain instrumentalities and featuressubstantially as hereinafter fully disclosed and defined by the claim.

The accompanying drawing, illustrates the preferred embodiment of ourinvention wherein it will be understood that various changes ormodifications relating to the details of the construction andarrangement of the parts may be made without departing from the spiritof the device,Figure 1 is a sectional elevation thereof. Fig. 2 is atransverse section produced on the line a2--a1 of Fig. 1, viewing in thedirection of the arrows, the same also showing a portion or fragment ofthe pipe-bow].

In putting our invention into practice, We suitably construct thebowl-member 1 of the usual or general outline, the neck or extension 2thereof, however, being somewhat relatively extended and preferablyhaving a ferrule or sleeve 3 suitably secured thereon at its upper endas is common, for well known purposes. The bowl-member has partiallyformed therein, a draft or suction passage or channel 4:, the lower endof said. passage opening through the wall of the tobacco-receivingchamber of the bowl, in its bottom, as at 5, said passage or channel incontinuation being extended, diagonally upwardly and t0\ a rd the stem,through nearly the entire length or height of the neck or extension 2.The upper end of the passage or channel 4: opens into the bore or socket(3 of the neck or extension 2, as at 7, at a point considerably beyondthe lower end of the stem 8 and well up from the entrance to the bore orpassage of said stem, the aim of which will be apparent presently. Thestem 8 has forn'ied in its lower end a chamber 5), forming anenlargement of its bore 8 to receive or contain the saliva-acmemulations, including the nicotin, or other excretions, or by-products ofobjectionable or noxious character. This chamber or bore enlargement 9is open at its lower end or bottom for the ready removal of theaccumulations therein, said opening being provided with a suitableclosure or plug 10 which is itself readily removable.

Later-ally produced or formed in the stem 8, in that portion thereofreceived by the neck 2, is an elongated opening or groove 11, the upperend of which registers or communicates with the corresponding end of thechannel or passage t of the neck-member 2 as at 12, while the lower endof said groove opens as at 13 into the boreenlargement or chamber 9 ofthe stem-member, well downwardly from the upper end of the passage orchannel 4-, to intercept the direct flow or passag of the aforesaidby-products, and to direct:- the latter downwardly into, and for theirdeposit in said bore enlargement or chamber. By this arrangement it willbe seen that said by-products are thus eliminated and prevented fromentering the pipebowl or being sucked into and carried up wardly throughthe pipe-stem bore, thus promoting wholesome and cleanly or sanitaryconditions. Also it will be observed that, in placing the pipe in aprone position, the by-prodncts are intercepted from entering thepipe-bowl or passing up into the stem-bore, the same being restrained orconlined to the bore-enlargcment or chamber containing the same which itis thought, is apparent from the structure as disclosed. It is alsoobserved that by disassembling the parts, as in detaching the stem fromthe bowl of the pipe, and removing the closure or plug from the chamberor bore-enlargement of the stem, all the various passages may beell'ectively or thoroughly cleaned, including the removal of theby-productaccumulations contained in said chamber or bore-enlargement,as Well as providing for otherwise etlectively cleaning said chamber orbore enlargement.

It is designed to construct or form the stem-member, with respect tothat portion extending beyond the neck-member of the pipe-bowlpreferably of hard rubber, the remaining portion of said stem beingpreferably of suitable wood.

It is considered that the advantages and benefits of our invention havebeen fully disclosed, it being emphasized, however, that it ischaracterized for extreme simplicity, is tree of all objectionableby-produots or excretions experienced in the use or" tobacco pipes, itmay be readily and effectively cleaned, and is inexpensive ofmanufacture.

What is claimed is A tobacco pipe comprising a bowl having a neckextending obliquely therefrom and provided with a socket terminatingshort of the bottom of the bowl, and a nicotin trap fitted snugly insaid socket and having a removable closure for its lower end and aninlet passage provided by a groove cut in the walls thereof, said neckbeing bored to provide a passage extending from the rear portion of thebottom of the bowl and upwardly Within the neck and above the socket,the upper end of the passage discharging into the upper end portion ofthe inlet of the nicotin trap, said passage being of uniform diameterand being straight for the greater portion of its length the upper andlower end portions of said passage being curved t0\ ard the trap inletand the interior of the bowl respectively.

In testimony that we claim the foregoing as our own, we have heretoaffixed our signatures in the presence of two witnesses.
